Regression analysis:
Regression analysis is a technique used in statistics for investigating and modeling the relationship between variables (Douglas Montgomery, Peck, &
Vinning, 2012).
Simple linear regression:
Simple linear regression is a model with a single regressor x that has a relationship with a response y that is a straight line. This simple linear regression model can be expressed as y = β0 +β1+xε
whereβ the intercept 0 and β the slope 1 are unknown constants and ε is a random error component .
Multiple linear regression:
If there is more than one regressor, it is called multiple linear regression. In general, the response variable y may be related to k regressors, x1, x2,…,x k, so that y = β0 +β 1x1 +β 2x2 +…+ βkxk +ε

It is also known as the coefficient of determination, or the coefficient of multiple determinations for multiple regression. It is the percentage of the response variable variation that is explained by a linear model.
R − squared = Explained variation
Total variation
R-squared is always between 0 and 100%. 0% means the model explains none of the variability of the response data around its mean. 100% indicates that the model explains all the variability of the response data around its mean.
Generally, the higher the R-squared, the better the model fits the data (Frost,
2013).
Analysis of variance (ANOVA):
Analysis of variance (ANOVA) is a collection of statistical models used in order to analyze the differences between group means and their associated procedures. In the ANOVA setting, the observed variance in a particular variable is partitioned into components attributable to different sources of variation. The following equation is the Fundamental Analysis-of-Variance Identity for a regression model.

Collected data were subjected to analysis of variance using the SAS (9.1, SAS institute, 2004) statistical software package. Statistical assessments of differences between mean values were performed by the LSD test at P = 0.05.
Our predicted points for our data are, (13, -88.57) and (-2, -29.84). These points show the
9. Factor Analysis - Factor analysis is a statistical technique that involves computing correlations between large numbers of variables. Factor analysis is commonly used in the study of intelligence and intelligence tests.
α is the intercept of the regression line, and β is the slope of the regression line. e is the random disturbance term. The equation Y = α + βX (ignoring the disturbance term “e”) gives the average relationship between the values of Y and X.
Furthermore, the methods applied convey “the techniques or procedures used to gather and analyze data that is
In this lab, we experimented how the incline of a ramp affects the acceleration of the toy car. In this experiment, we sent a toy car down 3 different ramps at 3 different heights. All 3 of the ramps had the same length of about 3.065 meters to ensure accurate data. We had to record The number of Trials, time, final time, distance, final distance, velocity, final velocity, and acceleration. In our lab the Independent variable was the height of the ramp and the Dependent variable is the Acceleration of the car when going down the ramp. With the small ramp, the average time moving down the ramp was 3.58 seconds. Then the average acceleration for the small ramp was .26 m/ss. That was the slowest time and acceleration out of all 3 slopes. Up second
The study is usually described as an experiment with the independent variable being, the condition the participants are ...
The analysis that was used in this study is called a two-way ANOVA. A two-way ANOVA was used since there are multiple independent variables affecting the dependent variable. The independent variable for this study are theory of intelligence level and perfectionism level. The ? broke down perfection level into three distinct categories such as Adaptive, Maladaptive or Non. The dependent variable includes HAQ-II scores which rates nursing home residents therapeutic relationship to their counselors. In this case, A two-way ANOVA was used in order to depict if a main effect existed or if the independent variable correspond to dependent variable. Once significance is found a post hoc analysis called Tukey is used to determine significant differences.
The study follows the descriptive analytical method. It begins by an introduction forming a background to the study; followed by a summary of the plot, a literature review, a discussion and a conclusion.
Quantitative research methods include information having numeric meaning, also measuring. Focus in this research strategy is on measurement and the comprehension of the relationship amongst variables (Lincoln, 2003). Quantitative analysis consequently depends and builds on statistical trials, for example frequency, mode, median, quantity and arithmetical procedure.
Analysts will input the following information into a simple linear regression model provided in Excel QM using a simple linear regression formula Yi =b_0+ b_1 X_1. In FIGURE 1-3 the highlighted Coefficients are provided. The b_0 is -18.3975 and the b_1 is 26.3479, these coefficients are added to the formula that is represented in figure 1-4.
The test will have problems of multiplication and division at least twenty problems will be in the sheet. This test will be timed and the two times will be compared and analysed. The person is not allowed to use a calculator but is allowed to use a pencil and paper to work out the problems by hand. The dependent variable is the gum which i believe will be affected while taking the test. The independent variable is the level of the test taken the test will not affect the person because the level of problems will be the same as the first test and the time
The first method to be discussed and analysed are experimental methods. There is a variety of experimental methods including; laboratory, field and natural experiments. These methods are the most scientific method due to them being highly objective and systematic. In addition, this method is regarded as the most powerful research method used in psychology because of the potential to investigate the causes of events and therefore, identifying the cause and effect relationship. When carrying out an experiment the researcher intervenes directly in the situation being investigated. The researcher manipulates an independent variable (IV) in order to investigate whether there is a change in the dependent variable (DV). Any other variables that could have an
Regression analysis is a statistical tool for investigating the relationship between variables. It is frequently used to predict the future and understand which factors cause an outcome.
